Hedge Planting
We plant hedges to suit your garden and soil.
We prepare the ground, set strong plants, and space them for healthy growth.
We can advise on the best type for privacy, wind cover, or a neat border, and help your new hedge settle in well.
Hedge Trimming
We trim hedges to keep them tidy, safe, and even. Frequent trimming helps you to create and keep a fuller shape and avoid any overgrowth.
We work carefully around paths, driveways, and fences, leaving clean edges and a smart finish that suits your garden.
Hedge health checks
We check your hedge for weak growth, pests, and signs of disease. We look for bare patches, yellowing leaves, and damage from weather.
Once these checks are complete, we will thoroughly explain our findings and suggest more simplistic steps to improve strength and growth.
Height and width control
We can decrease and manage the hedge size to keep it within your chosen height and width. This helps prevent shading, keeps paths clear, and avoids problems with neighbours.
We can shape them evenly, so they stay neat, balanced, and easier to maintain.
Seasonal tidy-ups and shaping
We tidy up your hedges throughout the year to keep them looking smart in every season.
We remove stray growth, even up edges, and shape for a clean outline.
Seasonal care supports healthy growth and helps your hedge hold its form.
Waste removal and site clear-up
We collect all cuttings and green waste once the work is done. We rake up loose leaves and small branches, then clear paths and beds.
You are left with a neat garden and no mess to deal with after we leave.
specialist Hedge care
When taking care of your hedges, we always avoid rushed work that can often leave you with uneven lines or missed areas. We do not cut back too hard, as this can sometimes put stress on the hedge and cause bare patches.
We avoid damaging nearby plants, fences, and paths by working with care and keeping the area tidy.
Our arborists also avoid trimming during the wrong time of year, where possible, to protect healthy growth and support flowering. The wrong time is typically during hard frost or very hot, dry weather, as this can stress the hedge and leave brown patches.
Contact Us For Professional Hedge Maintenance
Contact us for professional hedge maintenance and keep your garden looking neat all year. At Blackdown Treescapes, we carry out plenty of regular visits or occasional one-off care to suit your needs. The time it takes depends on hedge length, height, thickness, and how much growth has built up. A small hedge may take 30 to 60 minutes. Medium garden hedges often take 1 to 2 hours.
Large or overgrown hedges can sometimes take half a day or more to complete, especially if access is tight or difficult to reach. We always work carefully, keeping paths clear and removing green waste with as little disruption to your property as possible.

Crown Reduction
Refine shape, reduce canopy weight and manage risk without sacrificing character. We plan every cut, protect growth points and balance the crown for better light, airflow and long-term structural strength.
Tree Bracing
Discreet, modern bracing systems support weak unions, storm-damaged limbs or veteran trees. We specify non-invasive solutions that reduce failure risk while retaining valued features, habitats and the tree’s natural silhouette.
Low Impact Forestry
Sensitive woodland work that protects soils, habitats and access. We use selective felling, hand tools and low-ground-pressure methods where needed to minimise disturbance while improving structure, biodiversity and long-term resilience.
